Hi people! This is the final chapter! Enjoy!
Summery: Neji's been pushing Tenten's limits lately... Is this a Hyuuga's idea of a date? If it is, no one told Tenten about it...
Key:
EmphasizingThinking
"Talking"
Narrating
"Err…"
"Hm?"
"Tenten…"
"Yeah?"
"Red is to promote strong heirs."
"WHAT!"
"So…"
"We're suppose to…"
"Yeah."
"Oh…"
Let's Straighten Things Out
Tenten stared at Neji.
Neji stared back.
They were sitting really close together on a BED.
No, Let's correct that.
On a RED bed.
Where they were expected to do… Stuff.
Unmentionable stuff.
Stuff that people are married do.
Fate has trapped both of them.
Wait, no, not fate.
A stupid little misunderstanding.
The awkward silence was unnerving, so Tenten decided to break it.
"Look, Neji, there must be a misunderstanding." Tenten started on the obvious.
"You think?" Neji shot back.
"You're not making this any easier, you know." Tenten said.
"Hn." Like he cared.
"Hyuuga Neji! Be nice!" Tenten yelled. She was going to whack him with a pillow when…
"My, am I interrupting something?" Hanabi stood at the doorway, smirking.
The young girl stood there, watching.
Neji found this annoying.
"Hanabi-sama." Neji acknowledged.
"Err… Hi…" Tenten drifted. So this is Hinata's sister. No way am I calling her Hanabi-SAMA. Hi should do.
Hanabi looked at Tenten than Neji than back at Tenten again.
"So?" Hanabi said.
"So what?" Tenten asked.
"Aren't you suppose to do something?" Hanabi looked on expectantly.
"Excuse me?" Tenten said, surprised.
"You know… Like kissing or touching." Hanabi explained.
"WHAT?" Tenten was shocked.
"It's nothing new to you, right? I mean, the whole town knows that you shared a hotel room." Hanabi replied.
"Who. Said. That." Tenten growled. Killer intent was spilling out of her body.
"Who said what?" Hanabi asked. She had no idea of the seriousness of the matter.
Neji decided to step in before Hanabi is turned into a pincushion.
"Hanabi-sama, with all due respect, it's not usual to have an audience at… personal bonding." Neji explained.
"I know." Hanabi stated.
Neji fixed his white eyes on her. He was furious. How dare she mock him!
Hanabi looked on as if it is nothing.
"Leave." Neji's voice was dangerously low.
"You can't tell me to leave!" Hanabi exclaimed.
Neji glared, and Hanabi was intimidated.
"Why won't you go?" Tenten pouted. This girl is annoying.
Hanabi decided to give them a reason.
"I-I need blackmail material." Great! I sound like Hinata. Hanabi thought.
"…" Neji was dumbfounded.
Tenten, on the other hand, was delighted.
"Really! You're new at this, aren't you?" Tenten asked.
Hanabi nodded.
"Great! I'll teach you how to do this properly." Tenten said.
Neji looked at Tenten. She must have gone crazy! Lee rubbed off on her! NO! Neji thought.
"Really? You will?" Hanabi let her excitement show through. Then she repressed it.
"I mean… are you good?" Hanabi redirected her question.
"Only one of the best!" Tenten bragged.
"Really?" Hanabi said disbelieving.
"You bet! Once, I got material so good that I was able to blackmail Neji to going to dance lessons with me!" Tenten chatted.
"Dance. Lessons." Hanabi repeated.
Life, as Neji knows it, has thrown him a curve ball.
A Tenten curve ball.
Sure, trying to explain sex to her was embarrassing…
But letting the whole world know he has been dragged dancing before?
Humiliating.
Straight up humiliation.
The only kind that Tenten could provide.
Hanabi stared at Neji than back at Tenten.
"Trust me, Hanabi, that's you're name, right?" Tenten assured.
Hanabi gave a court nod.
"Never, ever, no matter what," Tenten said in a serious tone.
Hanabi listened intently. Getting good black mail has secrets. And this sounded like one of them.
Neji listened too, for he was interested. He never found out how she was able to find good blackmail. This must be one of her secrets.
"Not ever in you're life time," Tenten continued in her tone of voice.
Hanabi nodded as she readies herself to remember a advice.
"Dance with Neji." Tenten finished.
What? Two pairs of white eyes stared at the weapons wielder.
"What?" Hanabi found her voice.
"Trust me. It's the absolute worst thing you can do." Tenten said.
Hanabi stared at Tenten, confused.
Tenten decided to explain.
"Neji has two left feet. No matter how graceful he looks in combat, his dancing sucks. Really, really SUCKS." Tenten told the girl.
"Unless you're into punishing yourself, than you can dance with him."
Hanabi was about to say something when…
"Hanabi-chan! Don't bug them! They're making babies!" a female voice called, and dragged Hanabi away.
The woman had the thoughtfulness of closing the door behind her.
"Making. Babies." Tenten said, wide eyed.
Neji had no interest in… doing that right now, so he decided to clean up this mess.
"Let's go." Neji got up.
"Go where?"
"See Hiashi-sama." Neji said in a monotone.
Tenten raised an eyebrow at Neji.
"Uh huh. And what exactly am I suppose to do?"
Neji looked at her.
And noticed that….
SHE WAS STILL IN A FREAKING TOWEL!
Blood shot out of his nose.
"Oh my god! Neji!" Tenten yelled.
This much blood loss in one day is so not healthy.
"Neji? You okay?" Tenten's face loomed over him.
"…"
all of a sudden, Neji shot up.
"Tenten?" Neji looked at her.
Tenten was dressed in an elegant kimono, her dark locks cascading down her back, features innocent and caring.
"You're awake." Tenten said in a whisper.
"…"
"Come on. You said we were going to see Hiashi-sama, right?" Tenten helped Neji up.
"Yeah. Let's go." Neji took another glance at her.
And looked.
"Where did you get the kimono?" Neji asked.
"The maid gave it to me." Tenten replied.
They were still in the Hyuuga manor and made their way to the Head wing.
Neji stopped by a door.
"Hiashi-sama. I need to see you." Neji called.
"Please come in." A male voice replied.
Together, they stepped into the room.
An hour later…
"So, you're telling me that this has all been a misunderstanding." Hiashi clarified.
The two teens nodded.
"And you're NOT engaged?"
Neji and Tenten nodded again.
"And you didn't have… sexual intercourse?" The matter of sex is always an uncomfortable one.
Another nod.
Hiashi misunderstood.
"So you DID have…"
"NO!" Screamed Tenten.
"I see." Hiashi put down his tea.
"You got the whole village expecting a wedding."
"We know." Neji watched as Tenten pulled her hair out.
"So, what are you going to do?"
"We're not sure." Neji replied.
"So-" Hiashi was cut off by a loud, booming voice.
"NEJI! TENTEN! WHERE ARE YOU?"
"Lee?" Tenten went to the door and opened it.
"TENTEN! ARE YOU PREGNANT YET? WHEN'S THE WEDDING?" Lee yelled.
"Lee! This is all a misunderstanding! I'm still a virgin for heaven's sake!" Tenten slapped Lee.
"WAIT….DOES THIS MEAN THERE WON'T BE A WEDDING?" Lee idiotically asked.
"Yes." Tenten replied through gritted teeth.
"OH. AND NO LITTLE TENTENS AND NEJIS?"
"Lee! Shut up!" Tenten screamed.
"OH." Lee looked VERY disappointed.
Lee looked like he was thinking. Then...
"WHAT'S THIS ABOUT A MISUNDERSTANDING?" Lee asked.
Neji and Tenten sighed as they proceeded to explain their whole story again.
And it all started on a supposedly sunny day.
When they finished their story...
"ERR… NEJI? TENTEN?" Lee asked.
"yeah?"
"HOW ARE YOU GOING TO TELL THIS TO THE TOWN?"
"Err…"
Ah, yes. It is just another sunny day.
